Linear viscoelastic studies were carried out on concentrated polyethylene glycol tert-octylphenyl ether solutions over a range of temperatures and concentrations comprising the lamellar and hexagonal liquid-crystalline phases and the isotropic surfactant-rich phase. The generalized or a simple Maxwell model fits the frequency dependence of the dynamic functions for the hexagonal and isotropic surfactant-rich phases, respectively. The combined influence of temperature and concentration on both the zero-shear rate-limiting viscosity and the relaxation time for isotropic samples follows an exponential dependence. The results are discussed according to the phase behaviour of these systems. 相似文献

Solutions of poly(p-phenylene terephthalamide) in fuming sulfuric acid were characterized by 13C NMR spectroscopy and solution viscosity measurements over the 2–28% w/w concentration range. The spectra showed the presence of two distinct amide carbonyl resonances at low concentration, tentatively assigned to cis and trans conformations. As the concentration increased, additional carbonyl lines were observed along with significant broadening. Peak area measurements showed that only the polymer molecules in the isotropic environments contributed to the 13C NMR spectra and a considerable amount of the polymer remained in the isotropic phase at concentrations previously considered to consist of polymer in highly anisotropic regions. Spin-lattice relaxation times were measured at six concentrations using the inversion recovery method. The aromatic carbons relaxed at a much faster rate (ca. 0.10 s) than the carbonyls (ca. 0.45 s), but the relaxation rates for both carbons were essentially constant over the concentration range, indicating that the observed isotropic phase is not affected by changes in the macroscopic solution behavior so as to alter spin-lattice relaxation mechanisms. 相似文献

Induced phase separation in low-ionic-strength cellulose nanocrystal suspensions containing high-molecular-weight blue dextrans 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Spontaneous entropic phase separation phenomena occur in a wide range of systems containing highly anisotropic colloidal particles. Among these are aqueous suspensions of negatively charged cellulose I nanocrystals produced by sulfuric acid hydrolysis of native cellulose, which phase separate into isotropic and chiral nematic liquid-crystalline phases. Phase separation of an isotropic phase from a completely ordered nanocrystal suspension may be induced by the addition of salts or nonadsorbing macromolecules. In previous work (Edgar, C. D.; Gray, D. G. Macromolecules 2002, 35, 7400-7406), an isotropic phase was found to form over a period of several days when blue dextran (a sulfonated triazine dye, Cibacron blue 3G-A, covalently attached to high-molecular-weight dextran chains) was added to initially ordered suspensions. Here we report work showing that the observed phase separation was associated with the charged dye molecules attached to the dextran. The Cibacron blue 3G-A dye attached to blue dextran was found to induce greater phase separation than free (unbound) dye; at increasing ionic strength, depletion attractions due to the blue dextran increasingly contribute to the phase separation. 相似文献

Structure and rheology of reverse micelles in dipentaerythrityl tri-(12-hydroxystearate)/oil systems

We report the formation of reverse rod-like micelles and their rheological properties in novel nonionic surfactant, dipentaerythrityl tri-(12-hydroxystearate) (designated as WO-6)/oil systems without external water addition. Small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) was used to investigate the structure of the micelles and their flow properties were studied by rheological measurements. We found that WO-6 spontaneously self-assembles into reverse micelles in a variety of organic solvents at ambient conditions, their structure depending on solvent molecular architecture, surfactant concentration, and temperature. Rod-like micelles with a maximum length of ca. 12 nm and a cross section diameter of ca. 2 nm were observed in cyclohexane. When cyclohexane was replaced with a linear chain octane, the length and the cross section diameter were simultaneously increased. With a further increase of hydrocarbon chain length of solvent oils from octane to hexadecane, the rod-like micelles grew axially, keeping the cross section diameter (ca. 3 nm) virtually constant. Increasing surfactant concentration also favored one-dimensional micellar growth. On the other hand, micelles shrunk with the rise of temperature, which is similar to a rod-to-sphere transition, and is essentially the opposite temperature dependence to that often observed in aqueous micellar systems. A structural picture drawn by SAXS is well supported by rheology; the relative (zero-shear) viscosity of the WO-6/oil systems was found to be markedly greater than that expected for a dispersion of spherical particles due to the elongated micellar structure, despite quantitative inconsistency with semi-empirically predicted values for rigid rod-like particles. 相似文献

The co-existence concentrations of the isotropic and cholesteric liquid crystalline phases of the semi-flexible rod-like virus fd in aqueous suspension were measured as a function of ionic strength at room temperature. At several ionic strengths the magnetic-field-induced birefringence, which is proportional to the number of particles in a correlation volume Ncorr, was measured for fd concentrations spanning the entire isotropic region. From this data the limiting concentration of stability (spinodal) of the isotropic phase, ρ*, was obtained. The co-existence concentrations and ρ* versus ionic strength compare well with predictions based on the theory of Khokhlov and Semenov, modified to include the effects of charge. A theoretical expression for the magnetic birefringence of persistent polymers was derived and agreed well with the data with the exception that Ncorr at the isotropic to liquid crystal transition was smaller than predicted. 相似文献

The mixed didodecyldimethylammonium bromide (DDAB)-sodium taurodeoxycholate (STDC)-(2)H(2)O catanionic system forms a large isotropic (L(1)) phase at 25 degrees C. The evolution of microstructure along different dilution lines has been followed by means of rheology and NMR diffusometry. In general, the L(1) phase is characterised by a weak viscoelasticity and Newtonian response. In the STDC-rich regime (W(s)=[DDAB]/[STDC]=0.2), 5 wt% is an overlapping concentration at which the discrete-to-rodlike micellar transition occurs as indicated from the total surfactant concentration (C(s)) dependency of both zero-shear viscosity (eta(0) approximately C(s)(3.7)) and surfactant self-diffusion (D(s) approximately C(s)(-3.0)). As the surfactant molar ratio (W(s)1) increases, i.e., DDAB concentration increases, and at constant C(s), eta(0) decreases and D(s) increases, indicating the formation of a multiconnected micellar network. 相似文献

The steady-state shear and linear viscoelastic deformations of semidilute suspensions of rod-shaped nanocrystalline cellulose (NCC) particles in 1.0% hydroxyethyl cellulose and carboxymethyl cellulose solutions were investigated. Addition of NCC at the onset of semidilute suspension concentration significantly altered the rheological and linear viscoelastic properties of semidilute polymer solutions. The low-shear viscosity values of polymers solutions were increased 20-490 times (depending on polymer molecular weight and functional groups) by the presence of NCC. NCC suspensions in polymer solutions exhibited yield stresses up to 7.12 Pa. Viscoelasticity measurements also showed that NCC suspended polymer solutions had higher linear elastic moduli than the loss moduli. All of those results revealed the gel formation of NCC particles and presence of internal structures. The formation of a weak gel structure was due to the nonadsorbing macromolecules which caused the depletion-induced interaction among NCC particles. A simple interaction energy model was used to show successfully the flocculation of NCC particles in the presence of nonadsorbing polymers. The model is based on the incorporation of the depletion interaction term between two parallel plates into the DLVO theory for cubic prismatic rod shaped NCC particles. 相似文献

Mesostructures in inversed Langmuir–Schaefer films of each of two contrasting bent-core molecules are explored via atomic force microscopy. One of the molecules forms Langmuir films that are optically isotropic and the other those that are optically anisotropic. Both show suboptical mesostructures in the 100 nm range, in spite of appearing optically uniform. The anisotropic films are effective in aligning nematic bent-core samples, but not rod-like liquid crystals such as 5CB. 相似文献

The influence of the shape anisotropy of magnetic particles on the isotropic–nematic phase transition was studied in ferronematics based on the nematic liquid crystal (LC) 4-(trans-4-n-hexylcyclohexyl)-isothiocyanato-benzene (6CHBT). The LC was doped with spherical or rod-like magnetic particles of different size and volume concentrations. The phase transition from isotropic to nematic phase was observed by polarising microscope as well as by capacitance measurements. The influence of the concentration and the shape anisotropy of the magnetic particles on the isotropic–nematic phase transition in LC are demonstrated here. The results are in a good agreement with recent theoretical predictions. 相似文献

This review summarized our experimental studies of ultrasonically induced birefringence on aqueous solution of rigid rod-like colloids and rod-like micelles from the view point of dynamics of particle orientation. For rigid rod-like colloids in dilute concentration, the orientational relaxation time was described in terms of the Debye–Einstein equation. This indicated that the ultrasonically induced birefringence could be one of useful tools for determining the size of particles of anisotropic shape. For rod-like micelles, the birefringence showed anomalous damping oscillation when the rod-like micelle was in an entangling state. The mechanism of damping oscillation was discussed using the results of the rheological measurements. 相似文献

The rheological behavior of a mixture of two liquid-crystal polymers, hydroxypropyl cellulose and ethyl cellulose, in acetone solution is studied. The total polymer concentration in the solvent is held constant (40%) as the ratio of the two polymers is varied. The mixtures are anisotropic, isotropic, or biphasic (isotropic/anisotropic), depending on the concentration. Curves of viscosity vs shear rate for all the mixtures studied show three regions of viscosity, as described by Onogi and Asada for liquid-crystal polymers. The viscosity as a function of the weight ratio of the two polymers at constant shear rate exhibits deviations from additivity of viscosities of the two components at all concentrations. In mixtures of two polymers in the melt, deviations are also observed; the negative ones are attributed to phase separation and the positive ones to homogenous mixing (comparison with the phase diagram). All the mixtures studied (anisotropic, isotropic, or biphasic), show ranges of shear rates where the first normal-stress difference is negative, as is generally observed for anisotropic liquid-crystal polymers. It is concluded that the isotropic solutions become anisotropic under shear, as they are not far from the critical concentration. © 1994 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 相似文献

The phase behavior of lyotropic rigid-chain liquid crystal polymer was studied by dissipative particle dynamics (DPD) with variations of the solution concentration and temperature. A chain of fused DPD particles was used to represent each mesogenic polymer backbone surrounded with the strongly interacted solvent molecules. The free solvent molecules were modeled as independent DPD particles, where each particle includes a lump of solvent molecules with the volume roughly equal to the solvated polymer segment. The simulation shows that smectic-B (S(B)), smectic-A (S(A)), nematic (N), and isotropic (I) phases exist within certain regions in the temperature and concentration parameter space. The temperature-dependent S(B)∕S(A), S(A)∕N, and N∕I phase transitions occur in the high concentration range. In the intermediate concentration range, the simulation shows coexistence of the anisotropic phases and isotropic phase, where the anisotropic phases can be the S(B), S(A), or N phases. Mole fraction and compositions of the coexisted phases are determined from the simulation, which indicates that concentration of rigid rods in isotropic phase increases as the temperature increases. By fitting the orientational distribution function of the systems, the biphasic coexistence is further confirmed. From the parameter α obtained for the simulation, the distribution of the rigid rods in the two coexistence phases is quantitatively evaluated. By using model and simulation methods developed in this work, the phase diagrams of the lyotropic rigid-chain polymer liquid crystal are obtained. Incorporating the solvent particles in the DPD simulation is critical to predict the phase coexistence and obtain the phase diagrams. 相似文献

Small-angle X-ray scattering and rheological characterization of aqueous lignosulfonate solutions 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Lignosulfonate is a colloidal polyelectrolyte widely used as a dispersant in various industrial applications and produced during chemical pulping of wood chips. Here we present a systematic small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) and rheological study of fractionated lignosulfonate (mass weighted molar mass M w 18 000 g/mol) dissolved in water and 0.2 M NaCl. The concentration range varied from semidilute to concentrated regime. SAXS intensity of all solutions followed the Porod law at all concentrations, which is a clear indication of a compact shape of the lignosulfonate particle. In water, below 10 mass % lignosulfonate, the average interparticle distance obtained from SAXS patterns relates to concentration via a power law with exponent -0.28. Deviation of the power law exponent from ideal -0.33 and a linear decrease in volume fraction normalized Porod constant as a function of concentration are taken as indications of self-association of lignosulfonate. In saline solutions at high lignosulfonate mass fractions the average distance between lignosulfonate particles was longer and the average particle size was larger than those in aqueous solutions. The intrinsic viscosity in saline solution also was larger than that in aqueous solution. Lignosulfonate solutions showed Newtonian viscosity, except at very high concentrations. The variation of the relative zero-shear viscosity eta(0),r) with concentration was interpreted with the Krieger-Dougherty equation. An oblate spheroid shape with an axial ratio of 3.5 describes the average shape of the lignosulfonate particles in saline solutions based on SAXS intensities, the size distribution obtained using gel permeation chromatography, and rheological characterization. The largest dimension of the particles was about 8 nm. SAXS and rheology studies as a function of temperature reveal indications of temperature-dependent self-association. 相似文献

A constitutive model for dispersions of acicular magnetic particles has been developed by modeling the particles as rigid dumbbells dispersed in a solvent. The effects of Brownian motion, anisotropic hydrodynamic drag, a steric force in the form of the Maier-Saupe potential, and, most importantly, a mean-field magnetic potential are included in the model. The development is similar to previous models for liquid-crystalline polymers. The model predicts multiple orientational states for the dispersion, and this phase behavior is described in terms of an orientational order parameter S and an average alignment parameter J; the latter is introduced because the magnetic particles have distinguishable direction due to polarity. A transition from isotropic to nematic phases at equilibrium is predicted. Multiple nematic phases-both prolate and oblate-are predicted in the presence of steady shear flow and external magnetic field parallel to the flow. The effect of increasing magnetic interparticle interactions and particle concentration is also presented. Comparisons with experimental data for the steady shear viscosity show very good agreement. 相似文献

Shear thickening and strain hardening behavior of hydrophobically modified hydroxyethyl cellulose (HMHEC) aqueous solutions was experimentally examined. We focused on the effects of polymer concentration, temperature, and addition of nonionic surfactant. It is found that HMHEC shows stronger shear thickening at intermediate shear rates in a certain concentration range. In this range, the zero-shear viscosity scales with polymer concentration as eta(0) approximately c(5.7), showing a stronger concentration dependence than for more concentrated solutions. The critical shear stress for complete disruption of the transient network follows tau(c) approximately c(1.62) in the concentrated regime. Dynamic tests of the transient network on addition of surfactants show that the enhanced zero-shear viscosity is due to an increase in network junction strength, rather than their number, which in fact decreases. The reduction in the junction number could partly explain the weak variation of strain hardening extent for low surfactant concentrations, because of longer and looser bridging chain segments, and hence lesser nonlinear chain stretching. 相似文献

The forces between colloidal particles at a decane-water interface, in the presence of low concentrations of a monovalent salt (NaCl) and the surfactant sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) in the aqueous subphase, have been studied using laser tweezers. In the absence of electrolyte and surfactant, particle interactions exhibit a long-range repulsion, yet the variation of the interaction for different particle pairs is found to be considerable. Averaging over several particle pairs was hence found to be necessary to obtain a reliable assessment of the effects of salt and surfactant. It has previously been suggested that the repulsion is consistent with electrostatic interactions between a small number of dissociated charges in the oil phase, leading to a decay with distance to the power -4 and an absence of any effect of electrolyte concentration. However, the present work demonstrates that increasing the electrolyte concentration does yield, on average, a reduction of the magnitude of the interaction force with electrolyte concentration. This implies that charges on the water side also contribute significantly to the electrostatic interactions. An increase in the concentration of SDS leads to a similar decrease of the interaction force. Moreover, the repulsion at fixed SDS concentrations decreases over longer times. Finally, measurements of three-body interactions provide insight into the anisotropic nature of the interactions. The unique time-dependent and anisotropic interactions between particles at the oil-water interface allow tailoring of the aggregation kinetics and structure of the suspension structure. 相似文献

With the use of viscometry, the cloud-point method, polarization microscopy, the turbidity-spectrum method, and a polarization photoelectric apparatus, the relaxation pattern of the rheological behaviors, phase transitions, and structures of the systems hydroxypropyl cellulose–ethanol and hydroxypropyl cellulose–dimethyl sulfoxide are studied. The regions of existence of isotropic and anisotropic phases and the concentration dependence of the sizes of supramolecular particles are determined. It is found that a magnetic field increases the viscosities of solutions. The concentration dependences of viscosity and particle size are described by curves with maxima. 相似文献

A study has been made of the viscous properties of poly(para-benzamide) (PBA) solutions in dimethyl acetamide, which undergo a transition from an isotopic to an anisotropic (liquid-crystal) state at a definite concentration C*. The polymer solutions behave in many respects (as regards the concentration and temperature dependence of viscosity, etc.) like solutions of low molecular weight compounds forming a liquid crystal phase, although the transitions are less pronounced in the polymer solutions owing to their polydispersity. It is shown that the viscometric method, being extremely sensitive to C*, is convenient for determining phase diagrams of anisotropic polymer solutions. The values of C* as related to the molecular weight of PBA have been determined, and a general criterion for transition from isotropic to anisotropic solutions established; the latter has the form (CM?)* ≈ 1.3 × 105 at 20°C. This criterion is in line with the condition for the formation of the liquid-crystal structure in a dispersion of rodlike particles as proposed by Flory. Generalized concentration dependences of viscosity have been plotted by reducing concentration to C* and viscosity, to the maximum viscosity at the phase transition point. In investigating the flow properties of PBA solutions we revealed the existence of a yield point in the range of low shear stresses, and an intersection of the flow curves of solutions of different concentration at high shear stresses, which excludes a generalized representation of the flow curves in reduced ordinary-type coordinates. 相似文献
